Donna & Family,
I was heartbroken to learn of Bob's passing. He is such a gentle, loving soul who was so good to those around him. Saint Mary's benefited so often from his kindness and compassion. I will always remember his smile and willingness to help wherever he was needed. Bob was one-of-a-kind and will be missed. Please know Bob, and all of you, will be remembered in my prayers.
